Bucharest (AFP) April 1, 2008
US President George W. Bush, days before talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, urged Moscow Tuesday to join a US effort to deploy a missile shield he said was urgently needed to thwart a possible threat from Iran.

"We are inviting Russia to join us in this cooperative effort to defend Russia, Europe, and the United States against an emerging threat that could affect us all," Bush said in a prepared speech made public by the White House.
